The Workspace tab in the Digital Thread Project Dashboard provides capabilities to browse and search repositories participating in Digital Thread Projects. Users can perform the following functions from the Workspace tab.

  • View all Repositories, organized by Repository Type.

  • Add a new Repository.

  • Tree View - Browse Repository containers, artifacts, and relations in the Tree View, as shown in Figure 1.

  • Graph View - Navigate Repository artifacts and relations in the the Digital Thread Explorer (Graph View), as shown in Figure 3.

  • Details tab - View details of any selected artifact or relation in the Repository.

  • Search tab - Search artifacts in a Repository using different search criteria.

  • Relations tab

    • Users can view both intra-model (within repository) and inter-model (cross repository) relations in the context of the given Digital Thread Project.

    • Users can create new inter-model relations in the context of the given Digital Thread Project.

(info) The general capabilities available for Repositories under the Workspace tab of a Digital Thread Project are the same as those available under the Repositories menu in the main menu bar except for two key differences:

  • Users can view inter-model relations, in addition to intra-model relations, under the Relations tab for a selected artifact, as shown in Figure 1 below.

  • Users can create inter-model relations under the Relations tab shown in Figure 1 below.

This is because a user is browsing Repositories in the context of a specific Digital Thread Project under the Workspace tab (Figure 1). When the same Repository is browsed from the Repositories menu in the main menu bar, it is not in the context of a Digital Thread Project.

Syndeia 3.6 introduces changes to repository navigation, search, and Digital Thread Exploration. These capabilities are now also available in the context of a Digital Thread Project under the Workspace tab, as shown below. Selecting an artifact in the Repository Tree View will work as before and show both the intra (within) and inter (across) repository relations. The inter-model relations will be shown only for the specific Digital Thread Project. In the example shown below, Spacecraft Specification requirement in Jama Connect contains several child requirements, as visible in the Tree View and the Intra-model relations table on the RHS. In addition, it has an incoming inter-model relation (from a SysML requirement) in the context of the Spacecraft 2404 Digital Thread Project, as shown in the Inter-model relations table. Note that repository navigation, search, and digital thread exploration is still available from the Repositories menu in the main menu bar where it can be used independent of a Digital Thread Project and does not show inter-model relations.

Navigating and search repositories, and using the Digital Thread Explorer in the context of a Digital Thread Project now gives users a focused view on inter-model (digital thread) relations specific to the given Digital Thread Project. This works for both the Tree View and the Graph View, as shown in the two figures below. Exploring the digital thread network and tracing through live relations, both within and across repositories, in the context of a Digital Thread Project has never been more easier and intuitive.
